A Sordid Tale...!!

The folks I, once, regarded an Ally of my Clan,

Have suddenly shown a torrid face with a fierce Plan.   

Termed me an "Asian", for my eyes were too small,

My Hair-color became a farce which ensued the brawl.   

In a jiffy, I was rounded by an irate horde,

Bled profusely when they stabbed me with a sword.   

Bruised and thwarted as I strove to compose my soul,

Shed all my dreams with Survival being the only goal.   

The whole idea of patriotism, was something to laugh upon,

InSpite of 60 yrs of independence, our freedom we never won.    

Bidding adieu to my misery, I ended the turmoil with a Moan,

This Nation would never accept the likes-of-me as one of their own...!

An Arduous squeal..!!

Slogging for many a months, saving dollars for my tour,
The destination I had always dreamt of, suddenly failed to lure.


For long, the India I knew, was about its heritage and traditions,
Though the recent episodes only strengthened my inhibitions.


The colleagues of mine returning from India, narrate a sordid tale,
Was once a land of affectionate people, who no longer prevail?


The Streets are desolated & the nights have turned eerie,
With a thousand eyes preying on you, venturing alone is scary


Each passing day unveils severe atrocities on the foreign resident,
The situation nowhere seems to improve, with the rationale apparently evident.


Today, it calls for a meticulous transformation in changing its face,
To Revive the lost faith in women, across the globe, with grace.
